Mouse in the House: ou and ow

Give each player a vertical playing board (one house) and a pile of markers (mice). On each turn, players draw a reading card and read out loud the 4 words on the card, paying special attention to the 2 words with the /ou/ sound. After reading, the player hunts for those 2 words on their playing board, and if a match is found the space is covered.

The winner is the first to cover all 8 spaces on their playing board — or the player with the most spaces covered after time is up.

The cards and playing boards can also be used independently of each other as reading flashcards.

You can purchase this little printable game on Teachers Pay Teachers for only $2 USD. It will also be given away on the H.E.R. website as a FREEBIE, about 3 days per year.
